Trefnydd: Prof Ludmila Kuncheva

To introduce the fundamentals of machine learning and analytics to a non-specialist audience.

Indicative content includes:

• Overview of the structure of the field.
• Basic principles of machine learning and data analytics.
• Standard and advanced classifiers.
• Clustering and feature selection.
• Elements of data analytics. Descriptive statistics.
• Deep Learning neural networks

ardderchog

Equivalent to the range 70%+. Assemble critically evaluated, relevant areas of knowledge and theory to construct professional-level solutions to tasks and questions presented. Is able to cross-link themes and aspects to draw considered conclusions. Presents outputs in a cohesive, accurate, and efficient manner.

trothwy

Equivalent to 50%. Uses key areas of theory or knowledge to meet the Learning Outcomes of the module. Is able to formulate an appropriate solution to accurately solve tasks and questions. Can identify individual aspects, but lacks an awareness of links between them and the wider contexts. Outputs can be understood, but lack structure and/or coherence.

da

Equivalent to the range 60%-69%. Is able to analyse a task or problem to decide which aspects of theory and knowledge to apply. Solutions are of a workable quality, demonstrating understanding of underlying principles. Major themes can be linked appropriately but may not be able to extend this to individual aspects. Outputs are readily understood, with an appropriate structure but may lack sophistication.

1. Perform elementary data analysis (descriptive statistics, visualisation, simple regression).

2. Understand the fundamentals of machine learning and data analytics.

3. Apply clustering and feature selection to real-life problems.

4. Understand deep learning neural networks and their applications.

5. Understand and apply classification methods to synthetic and real datasets.

		Oriau
Lecture	Depending on the requirements, the material will be delivered as full-hour lectures or on-line or lectures of suitable duration. The lectures will be staggered so as to give the students sufficient time to absorb the material. The total timing will be roughly 24 hours of lectures.	24
Practical classes and workshops	Part of the course material will be taught through regular lab sessions held either face-to-face or online. The total time will amount to 24 hours.	24
Private study	Time for the students to revise the material taught in the lectures and the practical sessions, and to prepare for the assessments.	152
